The tenant appealed against an order requiring him to allow access to the landlord to carry out works in order to provide alternative accommodation.
Held: The order was invalid. Where the tenant was secure, and opposed the access, the power to make such an order required that the works proposed were supported by a statutory grant. The landlord had made no application for such a grant, and the order was not available to him.
